Join me on my adventure through Tolkien’s Middle Earth as I build a guitar inspired by The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
“It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.”
“The Ring has awoken, it’s heard its master’s call.”

love the extra detail with the sign - no admittance except for guitar business.
Cheers! I have fun putting in themed details.
Two minutes in and I'm impressed with the production. The sound, music, lighting, heck even the title fonts are spot on. THANK YOU! I have set through several videos of nice guitars where I cannot hear a thing, but the guy just keeps on talking. If your guitar is even close to your video quality, you should make room for a trophy! Well done so far. Keep up the good works!
Thanks, I’m very pleased that you’re enjoying all aspects of the build and videos!
I love your GBBO videos! Probably the most creative and amusing of the lot.
Great job as always!
Thanks, glad you’re enjoying them! 👍
Oh boy. That is looking awesome. Can't wait for the next chapter!
🖖
Cheers! Hopefully the next one will be out in a few weeks.
I fell in love with your work on the Dr Who build. This one is going to be even more epic! And that head stock? Glorious! Can't wait to follow the rest of the build.
Thanks so much! Should have the next chapter out on a week or two. 🤞👍
@@adairguitars Wonderful!!!
Such a great quality video! I loved every aspect of it, even the bit with the putting in of the ring. What I really loved was the shape and detailing of the guitar, though.
Thanks, I’m glad the details of the guitar still stood out! 👍
It all looks like it's going to plan Arran. Nice work on the neck, and loving that offset body.
Thanks John. I must say that I spent a lot of time planning in the extended lead up to GGBO this year.
I don’t know how or why the algorithm linked me to you tonight. It must be destiny!! I’m willing to help you shoulder your load Frodo Baggins! Liked and subscribed!!! Much love from Australia
Glad you found my channel and hope you enjoy! 👍
Beautiful work
Had to come back and watch again!
I appreciate it!
That headstock design is absolutely stunning. So beautiful, fresh, and new. Excellent vision. Can't wait to see the final build.
Thanks, I appreciate your comments. 👍
Arran, I don't know what to say, other than you are a god! Your intro video was awesome, but this was even better! I cannot wait to see how this turns out, and vote for your build!
I’m very flattered, thanks Chris!
Each year more Pommy influence. Good on yer. Fine build.
Thanks Steve!
Loving the series. The background music and narration fit in well with the build. Hope the nazguls stay away.
Thanks Bart. There is a fair chance the nazguls might appear in the next chapter!
@@adairguitars Oh no! Be very careful.
Wow. Just wow.
Thanks!
Fantastic video and a great build, as always!
Thanks! 👍
Wonderful stuff, Arran! Looks as if you'll even top last year's build, which is a very tough call indeed!
Thanks Chris. I’m definitely having fun building this one as well!
I love the headstock already.
Thanks Misha! 👍
Lovely neck, will certainly survive the journey into Mordor!
Thanks Chris, I hope so!
Dude... Absolutely awesome.
Thanks Scott, I’m very pleased so far.
I’m liking what I’m seeing!!
I’m glad! 👍
incredible! As always
Thanks! 👍
Lovely work Arran! I’m slowly playing catch up and working my through everyones videos (I’m better on Insta!) so apologies I’m late to the table with this. You’ve given me some ideas and inspiration. I agree with Chris G, you may even top the Dr Who guitar here
Cheers! Glad you’ve got some ideas and inspiration out of it. Im taking my time to get everything right on this one. 👍
Great video! Your storytelling is great! And i love the design of the headstock! Great job!
Thanks Lars! I’m very happy with the progress so far. 👍
@@adairguitars It's already nice! Can wait for the engraving!
I hoping the figuring on the top doesn’t chip out too much when I do the engraving. Will definitely test it on an off cut first.
Love that headstock! And of course the story telling too!
Thanks Chris! The headstock still has a few more features to add, so hopefully they will complement it.
Yeeeeeesssss! Love this, love the build, love Arran! Really clean, precise building, looking forward to the next chapter :-)
Why thank you, you’re making me blush! 😊
This is an extremely well put together production (& neck!) love the attention to detail on all levels
Cheers, I had fun playing around with filming this video!
@@adairguitars It shows, and that's a real win
Totally awesome. You are going to be hard to beat!
Yeah what Ray said
Thanks Ray, early days still!
Yeah, what Ray and Corey said
Thanks Chris!
Nice washer trick!
It works well!
I love the detailing in the headstock and the fretboard looks pretty sensational too 😍👍
Cheers! Thicknessing the fretboard from a blank is like opening a present. Got a good one when this was opened!
Fantastic...I was mesmerised! Look forward to chapter 2 😎
Thanks! I’m looking forward to it too. 👍
Awesome video!
Thanks! The next one should be out in the next couple of days if all goes to plan. 👍
such a great video! and that head stock! wow! so meticulously crafted.... sweet fretboard too. 😮
Thanks Jurgen. I’m glad the process worked!
Everything's going too well! The body, the neck, and the headstock look great (and have a nice sound track, too)! There must be perilous times ahead! Great stuff!
I’m sure there are some dark moments ahead. Especially if the One Guitar needs to be destroyed. 🤔😱
Great production. And enjoying the build. Looking great so far
Thanks, I’m glad you’re enjoying it!
Looks good so far. 😎
Thanks!
I was completely caught up in this build. Great presentation. It truly feels like a build from Mordor. Lol. You've definitely given this build a hell of an aura. Waiting for part 2! Subbed.
Thanks, it’s cool reading comments like this! 👍
Really nice work Arran, it looks great!👍
Cheers mate! 👍
you could make some nice knife handles from those off cuts ;)
Sure could! I also wonder if I know anyone with a forge to make a magic ring? 😉
@@adairguitars I think I know a guy 😜
Headstock detail is great! Whats the fretboard material? Sorry if it was mentioned already.
Thanks! The fretboard is ebony. I always love the ebony that has the colouring through it. And it’s usually cheaper too! By thicknessing the two boards that I had, I essentially had a choice of four to use as the top of the fretboard.
How did You make the fret slot ruler or was it sold somewhere?
It’s a StewMac fret scale template. 👍
The ducks nuts I tell you
😂 It will be a nerve wracking moment when I join and cut the top.
@@adairguitars it’ll be fine
One Jig to rout them All. And with the rout to bind them?
Sorry.
One jig for everything would be awesome, despite the power it would hold.
@@adairguitars Great work. I like the style of the videos too. And that neck/headstock is coming along beautifully. Can't wait for the next installment! Looks like this will be another of my faves for the GGBO, again!
PS, now back to the Prologue which i just realized I have missed...
Thanks Tim. Glad you’re enjoying it!
I'm not talking to you! I voted for you in the GGBO on the CLEAR understanding that we got at least ONE win on the last Ashes tour. What happened?..... Not only did you humiliate our Men's team, but you then went on to whitewash the Women's Team and then hammer them in the final of the Women's Cricket World Cup!! I'll never trust an Aussie again!! LOL!
Seriously though, this looks like another inspirational build and I'm looking forward to seeing all the "Magic & Mystery" it ends up with!!
Haha! It was certainly an interesting summer of cricket! Thanks for your comments, hopefully this one can live up to last year’s GGBO guitar! 👍
